This week's newsletter covers the Dartmoor Pony controversy, the death of the Major Oak, a stygofauna discovery, the push to recognise animal culture, and much more. www.inkcap.co.uk/pony-uproar-...

Appreciate that fake culls of Dartmoor ponies are now yesterday’s news, but thanks to @inkcapjournal.bsky.social for correcting the record on this! -

I find it absolutely shocking that it's legally permissable to cut down an ancient tree. Yet it is. A new long read on @inkcapjournal.bsky.social explores this extraordinary legislative failure. www.inkcap.co.uk/why-isnt-bri...

Britain is failing its ancient trees. Our latest long read explores the reasons. www.inkcap.co.uk/why-isnt-bri...

The importance of plants on balconies. Why chalk streams need protection. Start eating invasive species. Environmental attitudes in the Church of England. DAVID ATTENBOROUGH IS 100. And lots more news in this week's edition of GROUND COVER.

Today, we have published an essay by @jon-moses.bsky.social on why it's time to reclaim rewilding in Wales. Come for the Edwardian naturalist being astonished by massive snakes, stay for the assessment of why rural Wales needs nature restoration. www.inkcap.co.uk/the-welsh-ar...

A (quite personal) essay from me about reclaiming rewilding in Wales, out in @inkcapjournal.bsky.social today. I was born, raised and still live in rural Wales. My ancestral farmhouse is a ruin surrounded by conifer trees. I understand the fears. But it's the loss of nature I fear far more.

We have introduced a new regular feature on Inkcap today. Enter CONTINENTAL DRIFT: a monthly roundup of ecological research from across Europe. This month we have: - Bird nests in Białowieża - Medicinal leeches in Spain - Rewilding lessons from Ukraine - And more. www.inkcap.co.uk/bird-nests-i...
